2017 was an exceptionally strong year in both sales and dollar volume and 2018 is tracking behind as of the November sold reports by 10% ($ volume), which is to be expected as inventory has thinned out in some segments of the market.

To see what has recently contracted and sold (last 30 days), please review the following links to listings below. The November reports were just released. Please send me an email if you would like to receive the monthly sold reports.

I can provide you with a short list of the very best options in the segments that interest you most. Contact me with questions and to learn more about new construction, future plans and all things Telluride!

Once a Victorian mining home, Telluride is now home to one of Colorado’s swankiest ski areas. It’s about as difficult to get to as one might expect of a jet-setting locale — and worth the trek.

With 41% of its terrain deemed advanced territory (that leaves 23% for beginners and 36% for intermediate level), stellar skiers will have plenty to keep them on the mountain all day. Skiers and riders looking to elevate their snow adventure can book a heli-ski trip and descend upon untouched, virgin snow.

Telluride is just one of two resorts in Colorado to offer heli-skiing, but it’s not the only way to experience fresh powder on this part of the Rockies.

Black Iron Bowl is an area of the resort that’s accessed via lift and hike. Once reached, it offers advanced skiers and boarders untracked, challenging terrain. Tucking into a locally sourced pork chop and craft beer at Smuggler Union Restaurant and Brewery is a recommended way to finish the day.

10 THINGS TO DO IN TELLURIDE

There’s more to this southwestern Colorado ski town than just the slopes. Here are a few of our favorite things to eat, drink and do in Telluride

Breakfast at this cozy café in downtown Telluride isn’t particularly groundbreaking, but that’s part of what we love about it — it’s simple food, done really well. Plus, the atmosphere is so cute, we find ourselves wanting to sit and sip coffee all day.

In the mid-1800s, Telluride was a booming mining town, flush with cash. Along with the money came saloons, brothels and bank robberies — including Butch Cassidy’s first successful heist. Take a tour of town to see which modern-day storefronts were once home to something a bit seedier.
